Installment released but not credited?
- Wait 3–5 working days after the release date — banks process crores of transfers in batches
- Check status: “FTO generated” means the transfer order exists and credit is on the way
- If it shows payment failure, verify your bank account is active and Aadhaar-linked, then update details via Farmers Corner
- Still stuck? Raise a query in the portal Help Desk or call 155261
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to apply again for every installment?
No. Registration is one-time. Once approved, every installment comes automatically as long as e-KYC and bank seeding remain valid.
Can I get missed back-installments?
If your registration was approved but payments failed due to a fixable issue (e-KYC, bank account), pending installments are usually released together after the issue is fixed.
Where do I see how many installments I have received?
